    I actually noticed last night that I had ploughed 222 hours into Skyrim since it came out last year, until I completed most of it in March. 9 days of my life!!!

    Got to be done. Buy it now.

      Playing The Secret World at the mo... quite good with the big wagon wheel of abilities but trying to get some of the WoW guildies and L4D2 guys into it to group up.

      Borderlands 2 sounds interesting.

        Looks quite good, but I abhor pay monthly games. £11.49 a month and there is no quarantee you can find time to play.

        WOW the same.

            As it is single player and off line you can in theory pause it at any moment and pick up from there later.

            The reality is that you often sink a few yours into it in a workday evening and a whole night can dissappear in the weekends. Redbull for breakfast helps.

              I was really into gaming on my PC but they don't seem to make games that interest me anymore. The last set of games that I really liked were the company of heros games. I hear that there is another version in the pipline for some time next year. I used to play the red alert style games, but the last lot I played were pretty cack.
              Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

              I preferred version 1!

                  HA! I knew I catch some of you gaming nerds out!!!

                  I've still got games stockpiled from last years sale.

                  Tried getting into Deus Ex recently, absolutely loved the first game when it came out, this new one just seems like too much hard work (cut-scene crazy).

                  There is an indie game called Limbo that was pretty cool, short but interesting.

                  Skyrim next I think...

                    I loved Deus-Ex human revolution, it was like a love letter to the original.

                      Respect.

                      I on the other hand have a real life too.
